Thank you for reporting your experience. Glad you got home safely and took precautions against infecting anyone else on the way. Hope your wife remains Covid-free or at least asymptomatic. 
 

you may want to re-think using the RT-LAMP tests. My understanding is that they may show a positive result weeks or months after you are no longer contagious. You are much less likely to have a positive result on an antigen test prior to your next cruise. 
 

best wishes for a speedy recovery!

Lots of their appetizers are low carb. Maybe 3 or 4 appetizers instead of a main course?
 

otherwise veal Marsala or pork tenderloin and ask for vegetables to accompany rather than potatoes? 

Canada will cease testing to enter on April 1 and you do not need to test to drive across the border into the United States. At this time, a test is still required within one day of flying into the U.S.

Not sure what the issue is here. At this point, your sister will need a rapid antigen test within a day of entry to the United States.   If she flies in the day before the cruise, that test will also be valid for boarding the ship. For example, if she receives a positive test on April 11, it is valid for her April 12 flight and for boarding the ship on April 13. The test to board must be done within 2 days of boarding if not boosted or within 3 days of boarding if boosted. 
 

Curious to know how Bora Bora is handling the new cruise ship restrictions.  It is my understanding that no more than 1200 cruise ship passengers are allowed to visit Bora Bora on any given day. Is that restriction currently in place?

Anyone hear anything about how B2Bs are being handled? 

 

We leave on a TA from PE on 4.16 to Southampton then reboard and continue on 5.1 for the second half ot the B2B.

We are in a similar situation and hoping the cruise lines treat B2B the same way as in the US, i.e. free test onboard the day before arrival in Europe. 
 

I like seeing the information posted here because I forget to specifically look it up but find it interesting, so thank you @syesmar

Your profile says you are in NW Florida. It will be warmer than where you are. I have always found a thin dressy sweater to be sufficient in the Caribbean. 

Don’t think anyone will be out waving 🤣

Could be. Definitely looks like it’s raining

Probably too cool to enjoy a cabana for the 9/24 Quebec to Boston itinerary?

While not impossible, it is usually not warm enough to comfortably just sit around outdoors by then. On the other hand, it is great for walking/touring without getting overheated. 

I need to gamble more….

I’m doing a 21 day transatlantic with HAL next month. If I make a small donation to the slots ever day, will it put me on the list to get casino offers/rates??  
 

Now that I’m retired, I have both the time and the inclination!

What time is your flight out of Copenhagen? Can you fit in a short flight from London to Copenhagen before your original flight?  

Thanks Wendy!  Now just hoping it stays this way until my early May cruise!

@hallasm  we will be in Geiranger on May 5. We are not morning people and would like to know if there is a reason to be up and out for a 5:00 sunrise as opposed to enjoying the scenery on the way back out of the fjord at the more respectable time of 5:00 p.m.?

 Thanks 

I am surprised at the unmasked fans in Toronto. Why no masks unless it was outdoors where technically they are not required?  Still should be worn in outdoor crowds IMO, but I realize that is an unpopular opinion at this point. 
 

I agree that the testing on return to Canada is outdated and useless now. It may have been thought to be helpful in the beginning of Omicron to try to keep it out of the country, but obviously didn’t work. The only reason I can think arrival testing is alive and well is that the government has already paid for the testing contract and doesn’t want to appear wasteful. Hopefully the arrival testing will disappear soon. 

Since you refer specifically to the CDC vaccination card, is Verifly only available to Americans?

Apparently nobody has had time to proofread it yet 🙄

”no more than 1 day before to your scheduled flight…”

I suspect that as the Covid restrictions pertaining to travel continue to evolve, if boosters remain a requirement for entry to other countries, Canada will make them available to those who want them. 
 

I believe tnbigal was using the word “show” as a verb rather than a noun. I do hope it opens as scheduled, before I get there on May 6!

Effective today, masks only required in the theatre and the casino on Celebrity cruises for fully vaccinated guests. 

They’re certainly taking advantage of the new Celebrity rules. Not a single mask in sight!

It makes zero sense to me that Canada has been removed from this list while the U.S. remains on it.

Canadians can always return to Canada. It is a mistake to say that we can't go home while COVID positive.

Currently, if I test positive while in Costa Rica, I can’t get on a plane to Canada. Therefore I can’t go home. I don’t understand your statement.
